Scramble Rules
Format
18-hole four-person scramble tournament
RULES OF PLAY
- All four team members tee off on each hole.
- To prevent slow play, the maximum score per hole should not exceed a double-bogey. Teams are expected to pick up and move to next hole.
- Team members decide which tee shot is best and mark the spot with a tee or ball marker.
- Each team member hits his or her next shot from within one club length (no closer to the hole) of the marked spot.
- If less than four players on a team, players rotate extra shot.
- This procedure is followed on every shot for the remainder of the hole, including putts.
- Putts need to be made within 3 inches of the marked spot (no closer to the hole).
- The first ball to go in the hole is counted for the team score.
- If the ball you choose to play is in a hazard (sand, water, etc.), the rough, or out of bounds, you cannot drop the ball outside of the hazard or rough even if relief is within one club length.
- Each player must count at least 2 tee shots. MARK THESE ON YOUR SCORECARDS.
- Teams must mark one score only on the scorecard. In addition, mark which team member’s tee shot was used on each hole.
- Men tee off from the white tees and women from the red tees.
- All rulings, including ties, are made by the Event Referee and are final.
MULLIGANS
- Mulligans can be used for any golf shot during hole play.
- Mulligans CANNOT count toward contest hole prizes (longest drive, etc.).
- Mulligans are taken after all players have taken their shots, and must replace that player’s original shot.
- Only one mulligan per lie per player.
